+ A channel callback module always got the module name as

+ An option <c>exec</c> for daemons implementing the 'exec'
+ has existed a long time but has been undocumented. The
+ old behaviour is kept for compatibility EXCEPT that error
+ messages are changed and are sent as "stderror" text.</p>
+ <p>
+ A new option value is defined to make it much more easy
+ to implement an own <c>exec</c> server.</p>

+ The undocumented ssh_dbg module is completely re-written
+ to facilitate tracing/debugging.</p>

+ The SSH supervisor structure has been slightly changed.
+ This makes stopping the ssh application considerably
+ faster if there are open connections. This is important
+ in for example restarts.</p>

+ The type specifications in SSH are reworked and the
+ following types are renamed:</p>
+ <p>
+ ssh:ssh_connection_ref() is changed to
+ ssh:connection_ref(), </p>
+ <p>
+ ssh:ssh_daemon_ref() is changed to ssh:daemon_ref(),</p>
+ <p>
+ ssh:ssh_channel_id() is changed to ssh:channel_id().</p>

+ The internal timer handling in SSH is now based on the
+ gen_statem timers.</p>

+ Own Id: OTP-15019</p>

+ <p>
+ Removed unused <c>ssh_client_key.erl</c> and
+ <c>ssh_server_key.erl</c>.</p>

+ The Reference Manual pages are partly updated.</p>
+ <p>
+ The ssh page is now generated from specs and types, is
+ restructured and is partly rephrased.</p>
+ <p>
+ The ssh_channel, ssh_connection, ssh_client_key_api,
+ ssh_server_key_api and ssh_sftp pages are updated with
+ links, correct type names and some minor changes.</p>

+ The behaviors <c>ssh_channel</c> and
+ <c>ssh_daemon_channel</c> are renamed to
+ <c>ssh_client_channel</c> and <c>ssh_server_channel</c>
+ respectively.</p>
+ <p>
+ The old modules are kept for compatibility but should
+ preferably be replaced when updating callback modules
+ referring them.</p>
